Bettyboarder Since 18 Mar 2005 1823 Posts PDX/ White Salmon XTreme Poster Wed Jan 08, 14 10:19 am     We always rent a car just think to double the cost of the rental quote (once you add insurance). Our last trip we flew to Cabo instead of La Paz and we used Fox rental it was easy we had no issues at all. The drive isn't bad just watch the road for holes, cows, goats, ect. You could probably get away without a car if you wanted to. We usually dont drive ours that much once where there but it's nice to get out for dinner or go see friends and stuff every once in a while _________________ Join the CGKA! Membership is only $10!

If so what was your experience. I rented a car through dollar. I think the rental was $750 economy car for 2 weeks. liability insurance is around an additonal $20 a day. if you plan on doing downwinders, having a rental car will be beneficial. if you plan on hanging out in the central LV area, you can opt for a shuttle and then just hoof it around while in town. _________________ www.jimstringfellow.com jp Since 04 Mar 2005 87 Posts wherever there are whitecaps   Thu Jan 09, 14 3:57 pm     never been yet..but this sure makes me want to make it happen…cool vid thanks 4 sharing KITExLIKExAxBOSS Since 09 Jan 2014 6 Posts Kook Thu Jan 09, 14 9:44 pm     Awesome video!!! rePete Since 18 Dec 2007 215 Posts Mosier, Oregon Stoked Fri Jan 10, 14 8:16 am     Very nice Jim!
